How do I deploy to nodejitsu while depending on node-sass?

Question

I am trying to deploy my ChucK Demos application to Nodejitsu, but am stuck due to node-sass 1.2.3 not compiling on their platform (SunOS). Can I work around this problem somehow?

Error looks like this:

./src/libsass/json.cpp:159:18: error: conflicting declaration 'typedef uint32_t uchar_t'
/usr/include/sys/types.h:98:23: error: 'uchar_t' has a previous declaration as 'typedef unsigned char uchar_t'

Answer 1

Apparently, node-sass won't compile on Nodejitsu at this point in time, since GCC 4.6 is installed on Nodejitsu, whereas node-sass requires GCC 4.7+.
